What might be required?

Steel Beam Calculations

We provide detailed specifications for steel beams to support the loads that were previously carried by the removed wall or chimney breast, ensuring structural stability and compliance with regulations.

Beam Splicing & Installations

When space is tight or lifting capacity is limited, our beam splicing calculations and fabrication details will simplify installing long steel beams without crane access.

Padstone Design

Included in our calculations, padstone design ensures that the beam’s reaction load is safely distributed to the supporting masonry below. We tailor the size and material of the padstone to suit the existing wall’s condition and material properties.

Support for Large Openings

For larger openings, such as those for bi-folding doors or removal of chimney breasts, we design necessary steel frames, structural columns, or masonry nibs to maintain the building’s stability.

Consideration of Older Properties

In older homes, where masonry might be weaker, we account for reduced stress limits and may recommend additional supports like engineering brick columns, steel posts, or new foundations to manage the load.
